Course Details

The Health and Safety Awareness (HSA) course explores the main health and safety issues found on construction sites and how these affect your role. The course covers topics such as workers and employers' legal responsibilities, typical construction hazards and how you can work safely in a construction environment.

If you want your Green CSCS (Labourers) Card, then this is the right course. You can combine the Health and Safety Awareness course with our Health, Safety and Environment Test (CSCS computer test) on the same day for a reduced rate. Passing both these courses will allow you to order your 5-year CSCS Green Card.

Fast Line Training Services are also a CITB Approved Training Organisation which enables you to claim funding form the CITB Levy, effectively reducing the cost of your course.

Benefits:

More and more construction sites are requiring operatives to have an appropriate CSCS Card or certification. In the absence of an operative having a relevant NVQ or formal qualification, the Health and Safety Awareness course is the most appropriate course to help them obtain their Green CSCS Card. These are slowly becoming a mandatory requirement for all operatives working on medium to large sites.

Combining the Health and Safety Awareness course with the CSCS Test gives you a 5-year CSCS Card, all achieved in a single day.
